It's been a while NewfNet! Koda recently got spayed and I had to ask the vet if he was sure he operated on my girl because she acted like nothing happened! The bad news about all this was that since they shaved her belly, it itched and she used her back paws to create giant scabs on her belly...

I found this on the top of Koda's head today. A whole chunk of fur came off of this. Hopefully it's a scab and I'm just being crazy. It doesn't look pretty and it seems to be rather large. I also don't know how a scab would end up there... Any ideas as to what this might be?

Hello all, This may have already been talked about, I imagine it has. I searched and didn't see anything, so sorry for the repost in advance if it has been discussed. Since I do not yet have rugs or carpeting in my new apartment, I have fur tumbleweeds. I have a pretty good dust buster but was...

It was a lovely day in New York City and I decided to take Koda out for some fun! I took her to the off leash dog park and she started drooling profusely(social anxiety perhaps?) so I ended up walking her around the park instead. Here are some pictures:

What a day! We got our couch along with some other pieces, I'm pretty sure Koda has approved the chaise part of this new sofa. Unfortunately, this couch is not flooger proof!

Seeing as how I just moved, I have started the search for a new vet and it is SCARY. My last vet was an absolute dream so my first visit today at this new place made me uneasy. Or maybe I was just spoiled to begin with... I took Koda up there to talk about getting her spayed and because she has...

I got these bootie things today for upcoming winter days. They are basically glorified water balloons that you stick on your pups feet for when they salt the sidewalks. I had a good laugh at the quotes and especially the names of the dogs on the back of the XXL packaging. Enjoy :) "I may be...

Call me crazy, but I want to get Koda an 8 oz filet for her BOOFDAY! She will only turn 1 once so I feel like the ridiculousness should be excused. Should I give it to her raw or cooked? I'm sure some other Newf Netters have done this before so I figure this is a good place to ask. I worry a...

Wasn't sure where to put this one but here goes: Well here I am, into the second week of Koda's heat cycle. The original reason I joined NewfNet was fear of these weeks(also because I simply love Newfs.) So far I think everything is going well. I am mostly writing to all of those with puppies...

I wanted to come to NewfNet to share one of Koda's successes. She is still a baby girl, so we do have other problem areas but I wanted everybody to know that she is a crate pro now! For some time, I thought the yowling would never end. This past month, she has been amazing. We have given her the...

Koda has been a pretty potty trained girl, until recently. She peed in the house twice today when I had been letting her out every four hours, and once yesterday! I am punishing her by putting her in time out and a firm "no," but then she gets destructive or jumps on our door and screams. I...

Hi all! I know it has been quite some time since I last posted, but I have found an ominous lump on Koda's side. I am surprised that I didn't see it sooner but she has so much fur that it was pretty hidden. I'm hoping it is just a fatty deposit because Koda is not even a year old yet! Has...

f-X_xXPYjvM Koda is loving playing in the hot tub(not heated.) Just thought I would share!

We arrived in Las Vegas today and I'm fairly certain it's been the worst day of Koda's life :( first we got her in the pool to try to teach her how to swim and when she couldn't figure out where the exit was she panicked. Then she went upstairs and found a scorpion and tried to eat it! I caught...

Koda is doing well with all commands but come. If she is excited about something and I tell her to come, she ignores me completely. To me this could turn into a dangerous situation! When we are doing our training sessions she always comes because she knows I have a treat, if we are out in the...

Are any of you Canadians watching the Stanley Cup Finals? If so, I can assume you're going for the Canucks. Anyway, just curious eh!

Your Newf is a compulsive follower/velcro. Some of you may have read how I am moving. I have also posted about how Koda follows me so closely that she trips me, while I'm carrying boxes! %$@*#$#%&!!!!! That's what. I have been telling her to stay when I leave the room so she learns the world...

My mother recently had a biopsy on her thyroid and since the results were inconclusive on whether it was cancer or not, they are opting to remove half of her thyroid. She is going to get operated on at the end of June and although she is telling everybody "Oh it's no big deal, I'm not worried...

I have the bloat chart up on my fridge just in case. I am extremely worried that Koda is prone to bloat because she drinks a great deal of water and then coughs it up. This happens all the time. I also have a special water bowl that helps slow her down when she drinks but the water coughing up...

I know I haven't posted in a bit, I had a few days to brood over losing Spike and then went full force into getting the house ready to put on the market. So it has been BUSY around here. I'm just wondering if anybody has any neat things planned for the summer, trips, projects etc. I would love...
